Sol y Mar is probably my favourite beach on Mykonos. It is tucked away a bit further than the others, in Kalo Livadi. Sun beds are large and of excellent quality, with new blue mattresses this year. We paid 20/25 per bed, which was excellent value for money.
In high season, I would recommend to book ahead to make sure you get in, in June however we were able to just show up. The first row gives you a lovely view of the bay, however if you come as a couple watch out for the extra sun beds that have been put in front of some sets.
Service at the beach is great, waitresses are omnipresent and very pleasant to look at. We also had an excellent massage from an external lady tending to Sol y Mar clients. Going to the restaurant for lunch is always a pleasure, the bread basket is home made and the most delicious I have had in Mykonos.
We started with some croquetas and I afterwards could not resist the shrimp risotto (again, but its so nice) The menu is extensive and features Sushi, Fish and Steaks as well.
While the bill does not come exactly cheap (mains are 30ish on average), attentive service and excellent food make this an experience we tend to repeat happily.
